This is probably the best draft class I've been a part of.

I've ordered them best to "worst" IMO. I'm leaning towards ranking B in the top spot only because the two best hitters in my system are catchers. Hard to pass up A's ridiculous #'s though. Might be overrating C's defense also?

.................	DUR...	HEA...	RNG...	GLO...	ARM...	ACC...	PC...	CON...	PWR...	VLH...	VRH...	EYE...	RUN...	SPE...
A	68	100	13	31	76	92	57	100	100	52	92	92	55	45
B - Switch	70	94	74	84	59	73	12	100	81	56	81	88	79	92
C	80	98	81	89	87	88	2	77	66	72	81	80	82	65
D	77	82	32	39	40	47	23	82	100	75	82	91	53	35

There's also these two but they are de facto 5th and 6th since last thing I need is more pitching.

HEA...	DUR...		STA...	CON...	VLH...	VRH...	VEL...	GB...	P1...	P2...	P3...	P4...	P5...
79	28		79	85	87	93	89	45	88	76	81	82	29
52	30		78	91	88	100	100	43	85	71	58	54	0

All this is probably moot since most will be gone by my pick anyway, but I do like to see how others evaluate prospects.

I like C. Well rounded. I personally would take 5th guy. Top of rotation guy. Seems to me no one ever lets go of a stud pitcher. Could possibly have 4 pitches over 80 after signing. How many times do you see that. If I needed a hitter I would go with C. Great defense for a position other than SS or CF and good hitting. Looks like a good 3B.

Yeah, normally I'd lean either P1 or A but I've got three pitchers with similar ratings already. One of whom I got by trading a guy similar to A (but with 50 HEA) because I thought I'd have a tougher time acquiring pitching. Instead every IFA and draft pick the past two seasons has been a SP.

I actually prefer player B. He'd be a plus defense corner OF that I would love to slot as #2 in my lineup. He'll finish with multiple 30/30 seasons. He's not as flashy as the other guys, but it's not easy to find a COF with that kind of balance. He's a career .400+ OBP guy.

Yeah I was gonna say pitcher 1 too. Worst case you could trade him for an equally good bat

For one, there's no such thing as too much pitching. Impossible. You should rank the two pitchers 1st and 2nd depending on preference, #2 is more talented but could be an injury risk, but those are each literally hall of fame talents.

Player A is probably overprojected at face value, the 76-92-57 is probably more like 70-75-45 and if so he's only a DH. Taking DH's in the top 5 is usually bad because most seasons teams can typically get good ones in the 20-50 pick range. Also, 68 DUR means he'll be below 100% stamina so if you're playing him at C he can't play everyday anyways, he's 52 vL so I'd prefer him to bat L to enhance his vR. He's not 100 contact and 100 power, those are exaggerated, you have no idea if those are 95 or 90 or 80, they'll be good but you don't know exactly how good because there's no way of knowing exactly how badly it's overprojected. 100 rarely means 100

For the hitters I like player C the most, I'm a big fan of shortstops because they're a bit scarce, and at the worst they're 3B/2B/OF utils, and that player's bat will always play, that's a guy who can get you 40 doubles 25 HR -25 SB .300/ .375/ .500 his entire career with average SS defense and gold glove 3B defense. Those guys don't grow on trees

Pitcher 1
Pitcher 2
Player C
Player D
Player A
Player B

Well who did you draft?????

Adjusted my ranking to:

Pitcher 1
Player C - SS
Player A - C
Player B - 2B
Player D - 1B
Pitcher 2 (couldn't risk this guy injury prone guy unless he was all that was left, and even then...)

Ended up with the catcher. Now I've got a system full of P's and C's and nothing else, lol.


Edit: With a line of 69/73/39/59/68 after signing, it looks like he should be close to his scouting projections. VRH might be a little lower.

What is his PC current/projection? 45 or closer to the 57 shown in draft scouting?

Current fielding ratings are 9/16/63/50/31. I don't have any money in advanced, but if I had to guess I say he ends up closer to a PC of 50 than 57. Should have decent chance at hitting HBD's definition of a C.

Also just picked up an IFA SS that projects better than the SS posted above, (both with $20M scouting). Nobody topped my $18M initial bid. Don't know how much I left on the table but I didn't want to open a can of worms by lowering my bid. Probably ends up being my second best IFA bargain next to the $14M I paid for stud setup man Thomas Del Rosario in a different world (2.0 ERA in 60 IP so far this season in the bigs, 80 OVR @ 20 y/o).
